Someone explain to me how to provide proof of commercial rights? I provided youtube with a screenshot of a facebook message to a music producer (saying i could use his song) and i selected that I have written permission, and it got rejected. How do I provide proper information for providing proof of commercial rights?
 
Get written permission and send them out the permission.
Secondly if you were with a network it would help you bypass that.
 
People are under the impression that random screenshots of messages or youtube videos with a descripition are enough. Youtube needs clearcut proof. Only use true royalty free music from reliable sources with a web url stating clearly you can use their songs for commercial purposes. The best is just to stick to stuff that is original only (no remixes) and is made under a Creative Commons attribution license.
 
Yeah but I have permission, I know I can use it I just need proper permission. It says I need documents stating I have rights to use the song, it says in needs to have clear written permission with a digital signature with the date. How do I get that? Do I need to write up a forum for the music producer saying I have rights to use all his music then send it to him to sign?
 
It has to be a signed email, online signing, online pdf or written (scanned).

It cannot be from an instant messenger or social network.

The only thing that lacks in his message, is saying that you can actually monetize. He does not say if you can monetize, he says their fans can use them.
